This drawing shows a big, twisted tree with thick branches. The trunk is rough, and the bark looks dark and uneven. Behind it, smaller trees and a flat, open field stretch out to a distant line of buildings. The artist used quick, sketchy lines to show light hitting the tree bark. The paper looks worn, like it’s been handled a lot. Check out cross-hatching to see how artists build up shadows with lines.
